Which radars cover Jeffersonville?
The closest NEXRAD Doppler radar is KJGX (Robins AFB, GA), about 1 miles south-southwest. Radar beams climb as they travel, so the height of the lowest scan over town decides how low in a storm the radar can see.
| Radar | Distance | Lowest beam over Jeffersonville | View |
|---|---|---|---|
| KJGX Robins AFB, GA | 1 mi south-southwest | 0 ft | Excellent — the lowest scan sees close to the ground |
| KFFC Atlanta, GA | 85 mi west-northwest | 7,500 ft | Fair — the beam can pass over shallow snow and low-level rotation |
| KVAX Moody AFB, GA | 126 mi south | 13,700 ft | Limited — the beam overshoots the lowest part of storms |
Beam height is the center of the 0.5° scan above the radar, with standard refraction. Mountains near a radar can block it further.
